1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a renal replacement modality that is often used in the ICU setting, including the neuro-ICU. This form of renal replacement therapy has been used classically for acute renal failure in patients with hemodynamic compromise, but is gaining acceptance as a method to control vascular and extra-vascular volume and mediate cytokines in non-renal diseases. Although these uses are briefly discussed, this review concentrates on the different forms of continuous renal replacement, mainly focusing on the technology of convective versus diffusive modalities and briefly on filter technology. There is also discussion on the various anticoagulation regimes used in CRRT including data on performing CRRT without anticoagulation. This review is not meant to be a discussion on the pros and cons of CRRT versus intermittent dialysis, but rather a primer on the technology of CRRT and how this therapy may affect general care of the ICU patient.
